I am so afraid of these big fat offensive linemen. While he may be strong and fast enough to carry the weight now, will he still be able to move out of his own way three to five years down the road? I just notice with Kemoeatu that he appears to have the knowledge of how to play, he just is not athletic enough to execute. I would rather see the Steelers load up on guys Pouncey's size, maybe a little larger. These 360 pound behemoths concern me.

i understand what you are saying, but I don't have the same concern .. cannon is pretty smooth .. as for kemo, i think he is a net-positive for the team and his issues are more mental than physical btw

If I'm not mistaken, Cannon can play guard as well as tackle. Dude's a road grader and would be an auto-upgrade to the running game, plus he only allowed like...half a sack in his entire college career, so...upgrade in the passing game too.

you got to wonder too, if these 360 pounds offensive linemen from college could handle the workload of an 18 games season. That is really pushing the body to upper limits. I don't think I could handle that.
